The defending champions, Senegal, kicked off their 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) campaign with a commanding 3-0 victory against a 10-man Gambia. Pape Gueye set the tone with an early goal in the 4th minute of the game. And during a disruption in the live broadcast feed for many viewers in the first half, Gambia faced additional challenges as Edou Adams received a red card. Senegal's rising star, Lamine Camara, secured the win with a second-half brace, earning him the man of the match title. With this triumph, Senegal looks to maintain momentum as they gear up for their upcoming Group C match against Cameroon.
